Passion to Profit-Finding your Passionate niche Market

WHAT’S YOUR PASSION? You must find your true Passion… Turn your passion into profit…

No matter what way you have heard it I am sure you have heard this  more times than you can count.

What is it that gets people stuck with this step more than almost any step that needs to be taken when trying to start up your online business.

I have coached several new marketers and each time It seems that the majority end ups frozen in place the minute I ask the phrase…what is your Passion.

Well I have decided that I do not agree that you have to start out passionate about what you are doing to make money.  But you need to become passionate about what you are doing.  So for now on I am not going to start out telling my coaching students to find a Niche that they are passionate about when they first start out.

If they can figure that question out and it works out that they are passionate about the Niche they start in great… But if not oh well… let’s just get started moving forward in something that is going to be profitable and then discover what our passion is as we go.

When I first got my start online I do not think I could have answered this question right away either.  My passion was God and my family.  But ask me how in the world would I ever be able to monetize either one of those subjects and I would have stared at you with a blank look on my face.

My son Keith Wellman did something very smart with me.  He offered me a choice of 5 categories that he knew was profitable already and he said pick one that you know nothing about and let’s get started.

Well it was easy as I knew nothing about any of the 5 topics he gave me to pick from.  Most certainly there was no passion involved with the choice I made either.

I picked Affiliate Marketing and within 3 weeks I put together a product which I called  Layoff Your Boss http://www.layoffyourboss.com and launched a very successful launch that generated over $100,000.00 in just under 30 days.

Ths was fantastic but as time went on something began to happen.  I began to lose interest in what I was doing and I found myself procrastinating and not wanting to even keep going.  Even though I knew I was doing something that had the possibility to generate more money than I would even know what to do with, I just had no drive to keep doing what I was doing.

I was ready to go back to work for someone else…UNTIL something amazing happened.

After my second product I began to start coaching and mentoring the customers that had just bought my product and doing everything I could to help them get started online.  I began to build tremendous relationships with those I was helping and I started seeing results happening in the lives of those I was coaching. 

My students began to thank me for taking the time to actually care about whether or not they succeeded.  Every little success I seen one of my students make drove me to do more and soon I found myself waking up in the morning ready to go.  Ready to find out how I could help someone else that day.  When I went to bed at night I felt a sense of gratification that what I did during the day was something of value and made a difference in the life of someone else.

What happened that made the difference of wanting to quit and give up to feeling motivated and empowered, and ready to succeed no matter what it took? 

I found my passion.  My passion was there waiting for me to discover what it was…and it was right there in the middle of something I did not start out enjoying at all.

Yes you must discover what your passion truly is but don’t get so caught up on the word Passion that you never find out what it really is.

What am I passionate about?

Answering this question honestly is the only way you’re going to make a go of things. No matter what your ultimate goal is, if you are not interested in what you wake up each day to do, you will not keep at it, and you will not be successful.

You must find it if you don’t know it. It will empower you to attain your dreams faster.  It will keep you going in the bad times, It will keep you motivated in the sluggish times, It will keep your dreams alive and keep you on track to achieve your goals.

Just don’t let it stop you dead in your tracks before you find out what your true passion really is.

I recently have joined forces with one of my mentors Ken McArthur… This man is one of the most giving men I know and he truly has found his passion in life and it aligns with mine totally.  It is helping others see and live their dreams.

We have joined together along with my amazing partner Dixie Brown and we have recently opened a brand new coaching and mentoring program called IMPACT 101.  Our focus is helping the online beginner finally get started achieving the success they have only dreamed about until now.

The New Impact 101 Mentoring System is 100% Customized To Your Abilities So You Succeed Even Faster!  We realize that success is not a one-size-fit-all and therefore needs to fit you as an individual.

30 Days…Amazing Results…Amazing IMPACT

If someone was to tell me that just a handful of ordinary people could accomplish such IMPACT in just 30 days I would have really had my doubts. really did not know what to expect when I jumped on board with the rest of the IMPACT team. But it has been an amazing ride.

What it proved to me is that my theory is correct…Everyone no matter who you are has so much value to give and amazing potential…Believe me when I say you have magic within you… 18 average pople from all different walks of life, each with our own little quirks and differences stepped up to the plate and made a difference in this world.  we had IMPACT.  We stood up in the middle of a big old noisy world and were noticed… Kind of sounds like a title of a book to me. 

Guess it is already taken by Ken McArthur; IMPACT: How to get noticed, Motivate millions, and Make a difference in a noisy world.

Here is what we did in 30 days.

In the last 30 days the Impact Action Team has been able to get out our G-I-V-E message to over 19 MILLION people, via radio, television, teleconferences, events, blogs, social media, newsletters, speaking engagements, one-to-one relationship building and more.

That’s one heck of a success story!

Just in Long Beach ALONE we were able to find an audience 1.9 MILLION people that we can spread our message to.

Take a look at this video of what happened in Long Beach from the the Impact Action Team:

Now that is how to create Impact…You can be part of this amazing team right now…to find out how check out this URL… http://learningfolder.net/blog/?p=217

Isn’t It time you had Impact?

Jeff Wellman

Before I get into showing you some results that Ken McArthur’s Impact Action Team accomplished over the weekend out in Long Beach California. I want to give you some good content on how you can set your own goals and how you can  make sure you achieve them.

I want to make sure that if you set yourself a goal that you feel the sense of Victory that the Impact Action Team felt this past weekend as we reached out and accomplished the goals we set as a team.
What is a Business Goal?

A goal is a statement that clearly describes actions to be taken or tasks to be accomplished by a company, a department or an individual. You will ultimatly have a number of goals, each describing a desired future condition toward which your efforts and the efforts of the team will be directed. If the goals are accomplished, then the business should be a success.

The Impact Action Team had several different players taking part in reaching our goal.  We all had specific goals within the big picture goal that individuals and individual teams were responsible for completing.  We each had specific instructions to help us reach our goals.  By each individual and each team meeting their specific goals the whole team accomplished success.

Without a goal you will find yourself accomplishing very little.  You will also not notice that you are accomplishing anything.  You need to set good measurable goals so that you can actually see that you are making steps towards the big picture goal.

Remember this point:  They are your goals and you need to design it to fit you and your business. Success is not one-size-fits-all and your goals will be unique to you and your business.

Goal setting has 2 basic purposes:

The first purpose is to establish a measure or a way to evaluate the success of your business.  Whatever you do you must be able to track it and make sure that it is on track to your success.

The second purpose of your business goal is set different priorities for all involved.  You need to decide who will be accountable for the accomplishments of each goal you set.

For example:  You will need to decide who will be responsible for each aspect of the project.  Who will write the e-book, who will do the videos, who is going to make sure the copy gets done and so forth.

Your business goals need to be challenging.  You need to set goals that will require some effort to reach.
Don’t make them so challenging that they are not obtainable, because that will lead to failure.  You need
to challenge everyone that is involved and responsible for its achievement. On the other hand if you make
them so easy that it takes no effort to accomplish, do you see this as giving you a sense of accomplishment?

There has to be some challenge involved to give you that sense of “I DID IT” Your business goal needs to say what is going to be done.  It needs to be Task-oriented. A business goal must state what is to be accomplished as clearly as possible. Leave no room for confusion for those involved.

Effective goals use action-oriented words like, How we will implement this plan, How will we establish our advertising is working, how will we make sure that the product is the right product for our market, etc.
Your goal needs to be very specific.  You must state exactly what is required from each one that is involved.
If the goal you set will lead you to a 6 figure business in one year then you need to clearly say that if we
follow this goal we will be a six figure business in one year.

Examples of Goals you can set:

Create an online Internet Marketing Business that will deliver high quality products to my customers. To find the products that my customers want to buy.

Create a Web site for my product that my customers can easily find.  To make it a pleasurable experience once they land on my site.  A website that is fast, easy to navigate.
 
Create a good relationship with my list of subscribers that have chosen to opt-in so that they become responsive buying customers.

Put in place a management structure and work with Joint Venture partners to accomplish my goals more efficiently, and more profitably.

Out of those 4 goals I just mentioned what is missing in them?

Let me know by leaving me a comment.

I would like to show you some of the results that the IMPACT Action team accomplished while at Brendon Burchard’s Life’s Golden Ticket event out in Long Beach California.

This was done by setting measurable goals and then taking the action required to meet our goals.  In this case we did not know what the exact outcome of our goal would be but we reached the goal of creating Impact and getting one person’s message out that was struggling to get noticed in this massive noisy world.
Watch our video right now.

I want to leave you with one last thing that I heard Brendon Burchard say this past weekend that was to me the most powerful statement I heard.

“Life is not about what we can get…it is about what we can give, It’s not about competing, it’s about contributing;   Its not about the applause, it’s about putting your hands together for others.”  —– Brendon Burchard

When you are setting your goals keep that statement in the forefront of your mind.  When you reach your goals will the end result lead you to be able to give to others in amazing ways that you may not be able to do right now?  If not please set goals that will lead you to be able to really give back to others.  All along the way what is it that you can give back from the results you received!

I also want you to know this…YOU HAVE MAGIC WITHIN YOU!

                      Ken McArthur’s IMPACT ACTION TEAM 2008

One Super Seminar down and I am packing my bags again and ready to head out to Brendon Burchard’s Life’s Golden Ticket Super Seminar in Long Beach California.

Hopefully the plane ride will be a little less eventful than the one home from Michael Penland’s event in Orlando Florida this past weekend. Made an emergency landing in Atlanta with one engine gone. Was not the kind of Impact I like to have in my life. But it sure gets you thinking about your life and how you have lived it while you are waiting for the pilot to land the plane safely.

Well this weekend is a chance for me to live my life while creating IMPACT as a member of Ken McArthur’s Impact action team. We are going to be attending Brendon Burchard’s live seminar and doing our best to bring awareness to teen suicide and help a fellow Impact Action member Deremiah *CPE create Impact for his life’s mission and that is bringing awareness and prevention to teen suicide.

Before I leave I would like to leave you with a way that you can be a positive IMPACT in the lives of those around you.

Think “G.I.V.E.”

Our real and only goal should be to touch “THE ONE”

That SINGLE individual who out of the “millions we want to motivate” more than anything needs us to G-I-V-E to out attention no one else but them.

To care about, see value in, and acknowledge them – solely.

So as you go about carrying out all the various activities of your week and putting into motion the plans you have set to make MASSIVE IMPACT.

I pray that you will see the extraordinary in the ordinary and the VALUE ALL of your actions as having merit.

This week, I challenge you to:

G-I-V-E, from your purest intentions
G-I-V-E, with an attitude of gratitude
GIVE, without the expectation of ANYTHING in return

I had to create a video of my life for the event and thought I would share it with you.  It shows so many people in my life that have given to me.

I just returned home from Michael Penland’s Internet Marketing and Joint Venture Super Conference.
Once again I returned home knowing in my heart that attending Live events is the way to get ahead when trying to become successful online.

First off I want to thank Michael Penland for being such a gracious host and for the invitation and trust and confidence in me to be one of his guest expert speakers.

I watch people in the same position I was just a year and a half ago full of excitement and energy. I see the value they feel towards themselves, and the belief rise up within them that they can actually make this work. I remember these feelings oh so well.

Now it is all with the follow up. What is in place for follow up with these folks to ensure that they do not loose the momentum that just gained. I know what kind of follow up is in place for those that took my offer up for coaching. I am looking so forward to working with these folks to ensure there success.

This was my second event I have attended as one of the Guest Expert speakers. When I step out in front of the crowd I come alive within my Spirit. The energy is so incredible and it drives me to pour out my passion to those that are listening.

It is so hard to believe that I once was this shy high school boy who would not even look you in the eye. I have discovered the power within to rise to any occasion that presents itself to me.

That is what I want for each person I speak to.

Going to these events as the new speaker on the block drives me to do what it takes to do my best.

My goal is to get invited to every event that is out there. To do so I need each event Host to notice that I am here to win and do what it takes to be the best presenter they could have.

I knew that I probably need a little work on my closings of my presentation which could possibly mean that I would not sell the best of all the speakers from the stage. Well I proved that wrong…but just in case I wanted the host of the event to know that I was able to put people in the seats for the event.

By doing this my hopes are that when someone calls any of the hosts I speak for asking for recommendations for speakers that my name will be mentioned and that I get a high recommendation.

My job now is to polish and continue to study to show my self approve,  and keep doing what I do best and that is connect with my audience.

I have discovered my passion in Live event speaking and coaching beginner marketers. Life is FUN!

What is it that would make life fun for you?

Do you wake up in the morning excited about what you do? Do you lay your head down at night with the satisfaction that you created IMPACT in the lives of others? Do you feel like you are doing what you are called to do?

If not you need to find that passion that lies within and let it lose.

To your Success and Laying Off Your Boss

Jeff Wellman

PS:  Once again no picture taken with Ross Goldberg the nicest guy in Internet Marketing, and picture of me speaking from stage. Anyone attending the event take one of me speaking? would love to have one somedy.

 Next weekend it is off to Brendon Burchard’s Life’s Golden Ticket Super Seminar event in Long Beach California.  and then off to Keith Wellman and Gary Ambrose’s Gateway to Wealth Seminar in Atlanta Georgia.

Would love to have you join me at either of these events, so that I can get to know you.
